Publication number: 20230315357Abstract: Electronic equipment wirelessly communicates with a terminal apparatus through a wireless communication unit and includes a direction-information acquiring unit and a processor. The direction-information acquiring unit acquires, through wireless communication with the terminal apparatus by the wireless communication unit, direction information concerning a direction of the terminal apparatus with respect to a reference position of the electronic equipment. When determining based on the direction information that the terminal apparatus is located in a predetermined direction range, the processor performs processing for displaying, on a display, a display screen based on user information of a user of the terminal apparatus.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Keiichi MORIMOTO, Kota NISHIDA

Publication number: 20220316947Abstract: A colorimeter includes: a colorimetric section that performs colorimetry; a first wireless communicating section that performs first wireless communication according to a first wireless communication standard; a second wireless communicating section that performs second wireless communication according to a second wireless communication standard; and a processor that controls the first wireless communicating section and the second wireless communicating section. The processor transmits colorimetric data acquired by the colorimetry in the first colorimetric mode by the first wireless communication when colorimetry in a first colorimetric mode is performed. The processor also transmits colorimetric data acquired by the colorimetry in the second colorimetric mode by the second wireless communication when colorimetry in a second colorimetric mode is performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2022Publication date: October 6, 2022Inventors: Keiichi MORIMOTO, Hiroyuki OUCHI

Patent number: 10687181Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a communication unit that performs wireless communication which uses an internal access point, a processing unit, and a display unit. In a state where the number of terminal apparatuses that establish a wireless connection to the internal access point reaches an upper limit value, in a case where a wireless connection request is received from a terminal apparatus that does not establish a wireless connection, the processing unit rejects the wireless connection request and performs processing that displays an alert in a first display mode on the display unit. Moreover, in a case where, until a given period of time has elapsed after the alert was kept non-displayed, the wireless connection request is again received from the terminal apparatus, the processing unit performs processing that sets a mode for displaying the alert to be a second display mode.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2019Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventor: Keiichi Morimoto

Patent number: 10614270Abstract: A terminal device includes a first communication unit that performs a wireless communication with a wireless communication tag of an electronic equipment in accordance with a first communication method, a second communication unit that performs the wireless communication in accordance with a second communication method, and a processing unit. The first communication unit receives an identification information of the electronic equipment from the wireless communication tag and the second communication unit receives a beacon signal including the identification information of the electronic equipment and an identifier of an internal access point. The processing unit establishes the wireless communication with the electronic equipment in accordance with the second communication method using the identifier specified based on a collation process between the identification information received by the first communication unit and the identification information included in the beacon signal.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2019Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventors: Keiichi Morimoto, Kenji Sakuda

Patent number: 9154004Abstract: In the rare earth sintered magnet, the ratio of R2 to the sum of R1 and R2 that are contained in crystal grain boundaries surrounding the crystal grains in the rare earth sintered magnet body is higher than the ratio of R2 to the sum of R1 and R2 in the crystal grains, and the concentration of R2 increases from the central portion of the rare earth sintered magnet body toward the surface of the rare earth sintered magnet body. In addition, the degree of unevenness in residual magnetic flux density on the surface of the rare earth sintered magnet body is smaller than 3.0%.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2011Date of Patent: October 6, 2015Assignee: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Makoto Iwasaki, Fumitaka Baba, Satoshi Tanaka, Hideki Sasaki, Takahide Kurahashi, Hitoshi Maro, Keiichi Morimoto, Seiichi Endo

Patent number: 5989622Abstract: The method is related to intermittent coating capable of distinctly defining a boundary between a coated region and an uncoated region on a web, to thereby intermittently form a coated film on the web with increased accuracy and efficiency. A coating liquid feed pump is arranged so as to alternately communicate with a circulation line and a pocket of an extrusion type coater through a directional control valve, resulting in coating liquid being intermittently fed to the pocket and then forced out of a slit, so that coated regions and uncoated regions may be alternately formed on a conductive sheet material. During interruption of communication between the pocket and the feed pump, the pocket is permitted to communicate via a discharge pipe and a shut-off valve with a sub-tank to reduce a pressure of coating liquid in the pocket, to thereby prevent undesired feeding of coating liquid to the uncoated region beyond an end position of the coated region.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 1996Date of Patent: November 23, 1999Assignee: TDK CorporationInventors: Yuji Iwashita, Seiichi Endo, Keiichi Morimoto
